NomadComply — Cross-Border Remote Work Compliance Autopilot for European SMBs
An EU SMB hires a developer in Portugal who wants to work 3 months from Spain. Suddenly the employer faces: - Social security: Does the 50% telework threshold apply? Need an A1 certificate? Which country's system applies? - Permanent Establishment risk: Could the employee's presence in Spain trigger
The Problem
An EU SMB hires a developer in Portugal who wants to work 3 months from Spain. Suddenly the employer faces:
- Social security: Does the 50% telework threshold apply? Need an A1 certificate? Which country's system applies?
- Permanent Establishment risk: Could the employee's presence in Spain trigger tax obligations for the company?
- Employment law: Spanish labor regulations may apply regardless of the employment contract
- Digital nomad visa: Does the employee need one? Does it protect the employer?
The answer to all of these: "it depends." And most SMBs have neither the legal expertise nor the tooling to navigate this. EOR services cost €599-699/employee/month — overkill for a company that just needs compliance guidance, not full employer substitution.
